Hi mummies,
Am contemplating between Singaporean (day only)CL and M'sia CL. I'm intending to BF my baby, so die die at night also must wake up and tend to baby right? So I presume don't really need a stay-in M'sia CL. Anyone can share on your own nursing experience during confinement if it's necessary/advantages to have a CL at night?

my girl recently started fussing/ crying in daytime (not nitetime though) to indicate she wants to nap. Once we carry her, she will fall asleep
then put her back to bed.
using pigeon pacifier, not bad.
i dont clean the wheels, just leave the pram near entrance so the house won't be dirty.

haha.. i jus leave the pram in the car boot.. keke..maybe once in a while.. ask the maid to clean it lo..
crying? mm.. i think bbs are prone to doing tt.. when they jus want nothing else but to sleep.. they will do tt one lah.. i think its perfectly ok..my boy is trained to sleep at night and play in the morning.. time.. dunno why also. automatically one.. once it hits 11pm.. he will go to sleep.. and wakes up for his feed.. with his eyes closed.. burped and back to sleep till 7 in the morning..

cheona: who say die die must wake up? u express out then u give to CL lor.. at nite take care? can.. if u wan to get to lose those pounds faster.. kekeke.. get someone who can help u at nite.. i breastfeed my girl, all u have to do is express it out.
CL helps to take care at nite, and u can have a better rest and nurse ur health back. as after Confinement u will have a worse time looking after bb.
so think twice

Chenoa, I agree it's good to have a good rest during confinement & build up your energy to take care of baby after CL leaves. Also depends on what time the Sporean CL stays until (esp if your baby fusses more in the evenings than daytime). I expressed out my milk & CL bottle-fed in the night so that I didn't have to get up.
CM, jurong pt sounds good. Jenifur's mum stays at Boon Lay too. Maybe we can all coordinate & learn from u!

Actually, it's kinda funny..I'm choosing to cut short my ML & go back to work early. It's not that I miss work, but sometimes I'm so tired of taking care of the baby all the time that I feel like taking a break from it & going back to work. Otherwise, having to do it 24*7, think I'll suffer from depression. Of course I'll miss my little one, but I think staying home full time will only be possible for me if I have help everyday (eg. maid or parents).

Hi Fresia
My baby uses Avent milk bottles & is also on partial Similac Exc FM. That's why I know what you mean exactly.
Don't worry, I called Abbott previously abt this & was told by Abbott's nurse advisor that it was actually the milk powder ingredients that caused the bubbles. She said it's normal. Btw, do you shake the milk bottle to mix or use a spoon to stir? Personally I find less bubbles when use spoon to stir the powder in water.

jenifur: my colleague told me he thought the 2 days additional paternity leave is not an entitlement, is it true? where can i find information abt this?
fresia: whatever bottle you use, as long as it's Similac, it's like drinking soap water - full of bubbles. i've switched to Nan 1HA because of this. my boy has been swallowing a lot of bubbles, i think and it has sort of caused him to throw up after every FM feed...

Here's e reply from MOM re Childcare leave. Let me know if you need a copy of e email
Dear Ms Lee,
We refer to your email dated 21 Nov 05.
2 Under the Employment Act, employees with any child (including adopted
children and stepchildren) below 7 years of age, are entitled for childcare leave provided he/she has worked for the employer for at least 3 months.
Regardless of the number of children, total childcare leave is capped at 2 days per year. There is no provision for pro-ration of childcare leave.
As such, if the employee has worked for you for at least 3 months and has any child below 7 years of age, she is entitled to 2 days childcare leave this year.
3 You may wish to note that the childcare leave legislation is
mandatory for employees covered by Employment Act, ie, non-managerial, executive or confidential staff. If you have staff covered under Employment Act, it is mandatory to provide them with 2 days childcare leave per year. However, we encourage employers to extend the same benefits to their managerial, executive and confidential staff as a good HR practice and also, because the Act sets out the basic terms and conditions of employment. Cultivating a family-friendly workplace culture pays off in terms of happy and more committed employees.
4 Should you require more information on the statutory benefits
provided for under the Employment Act, you could visit the Ministry of Manpower's web-site at http://www.mom.gov.sg (under FAQs, Labour Relations) or call 6 4385122.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs Kwang-Kong Chi Mei
for Commissioner for Labour</font>

Hi Clarisse's Mum and Syl,
thanks for your opinions. I'm starting to be apprehensive about nursing my baby.
Would you recommend me your CL cos so far, my friends' recommendation either not available or not working as CL liao. Would appreciate if you can give your comments on her service and her rates. [email protected]
Clarrise's Mum:>cheona: who say die die must wake up? u express out then u give to CL lor..
I thought that even if feed expressed BM, you still have to wake up in the night to express milk to keep up the supply?
Since both of you express BM, what pump are you using and how's your appraisal on it? You reckon I purchase my pump before delivery?
